Under the law you don't even have to be on the property to be trespassed warning to be submitted by law enforcement, if you come back you get a free Uber ride by law enforcement lol

First of all, it's a statute, not a statue.
Second, different communities have different regulations regarding trespassing, the Florida statute only covers a "generic" situation.
Third, if they come onto your property uninvited, and you have to ask them to leave, then they have already trespassed, by coming onto your property uninvited. That IS trespassing. That's the very definition. Going where you aren't invited. I shouldn't have to tell a trespasser to get off my property, in order to have the encounter qualify as a trespass. The fact that they got to my door is qualification enough.
Florida is actually LAX on the definition of trespass, and requires the owner to object after the fact. That protects the trespasser, not the homeowner.
